Cole & Claire Bear Report

Cole got to spend today with Great Aunt Cathy, Auntie Becca, cousin Jack, grandma and grandpa Klie and myself! we had such a great afternoon! Even just running some errands was a blast! It was so neat to see Cole interact with Jack as both of them are getting older! I can't say enough how lucky Cole is to have three cousins all so close in age!! We enjoyed lunch out, a costco run, a target run, outside time, and some inside play time. It will be so fun to see the two grow up together, as they are already so entertaining! I honestly thing bcak and wonder what we did at family gatherings before! They must have been pretty boring! Here's a few pictures! This picture we thought was so funny cause we gave them both our phones and away they went!

Cole just seems to have grown up so much in the last few weeks! He's talking a lot more, been sleeping better and wants to walk so badly! We have been enjoying lots of time with both families in the last week or so. It's been so much fun! We got the privledge to go to the salish lodge this last weekend, and we enjoyed it so much! So nice to get the three of us together!! we even got a picture!! ;-) Cole really seems to have fallen in love with being outside! I can't wait til the pacific northwest cooperates and actually gives us a summer. Grandpa Klie loves walking with Cole, and Cole recently has loved toughing the trees! He's become quite the little explorer with Grandpa! It will be so nice, I have a whole week off at the end of July, just to soak up time with my baby boy and his auntie Christina is coming to visit yay!!

Cole said DADA today at Grammy and Papa's house! THe last few days all of a sudden started saying gaga so the whole family has been trying to get him to say something... Mama, Dada, Grandma, Grandpa and Auntie... Dada came out first :-) Can't wait to see what he says next!! He's pulling him self up on things, and still learning what he can do! Still not too interesated in crawling, and will scoot or stretch to get something! He loves to stand and we are walking with him now, so he's ready to move!! He's growing up so fast!!!

This weekend Cole got to go to Mom and Dads while I was at work. It was finally nice out so he got to go outside!! Mom and Dad have a great park not far from the house so Dad toook Cole for a walk and they had a great time! Cant wait to see Cole in the kiddie pools at boht grandparents this summer in his cute swim trunks! Cole seems to love the swings, slide and even tried grass... lets just say he didn't like it ;-) After he tried Grass...

I have been making lots of different baby foods lately! Cole's favorites right now are sweet potatoes, apples and carrots. A Friend of mine asked how hard it was to make baby food, so I took pictures of the steps that I use to make the apples!! Here ya go ;-) I forgot the picture of the apples in the food processor, but that was not really cool ;-)

I can't wait until the sunshine is here and Cole and I can take walks around the area! Plus go swimming and do all sorts of fun things! The last 9 days of rain make me want it more! We are currently looking forward to my Aunt Cathy coming to visit from Texas. She will be here for about 3 weeks! She has not gotten to meet Cole yet, but we are excited for her to meet him!! We are looking forward to lots of fun in the month of June!!
